Feature request : allow to use a custom .clang-format

Post by Folco »

Hi Eran,

Would it be possible to allow to use a .clang-format, as documented here : http://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.html
It would throw a command like clang-format -i <specified .clang-format> *.?pp>, it could save and reload automagically the formatted files.

What do you think about that ? Thanks in advance.

Notes :
- I have tried to get that with the External Tools, but something fails in file reloading, IIRC. I could investigate again if you wish.
- I ask for such a feature because it's handy to have only one .clang-format for all its IDE and projects. And it's really easy to get with such a site

Can you please make this an official feature request?
These kind of requests will get lost on the forum

I used this page : http://codelite.org/contact.php
I was surprised to not find a feature request page on github :shock:
